My current job was found via LinkedIn. For the most part I'm not a fan, especially given my hatred for anything Microsoft. I had quit my previous job and wasn't even sure I was going to continue working but thanks to a new law where I live that requires job listings to list the salary range, I saw a job closer to home with a nice salary bump that was what I really wanted to do if I continued working so I applied. And it turned out I was a perfect fit for the job. So yeah you can find legit jobs via LinkedIn. Doesn't make this extension scanning any less shady though.

Comment This is a horrible idea (Score 1) 309

If you're paying a very high interest rate and/or have a significant balance such that the interest is a problem, that suggests that you don't have very good money management skills to begin with. Banks price that poor money management and the associated risks in to the interest rate you're paying. Giving that person a reprieve, even if only temporary, is likely to result in them just spending the money saved on interest elsewhere and not paying down their debt which would be the smart move. Meanwhile, the banks are going to make their profit so to compensate they'll reduce benefits others get for having good credit and/or reduce giving credit to risky borrowers. This is an idea that sounds good on paper but in reality would cause more problems than it solves.

Comment This Visa program should just be eliminated. (Score 2) 72

Where I grew up there were a lot of Aerospace companies. Those companies needed engineers. They didn't ask the government to import them. They made large payments to local universities to support their engineering programs and helped create a pipeline of future employees. Seems like companies nowadays just want to take shortcuts, instead of helping themselves.
